What drives solar-EUV jets seen in equatorial coronal holes?

Results in Physics, 2016
Recent observations of jets in solar coronal holes that include multi-wavelength data such as EUV movies have shown that most of those jets are not driven in the way suggested by the standard model.

On the Freeze‐In Distance of Solar Wind Fluid Entropy Variability in the Corona

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The strong correlation between solar wind entropy and the frozen‐in ion charge state ratio O7+/O6+ ${\mathrm{O}}^{7+}/{\mathrm{O}}^{6+}$ indicates that entropy variability on timescales of hours or longer is preserved from its solar source. This prompts the question: where in the solar atmosphere does this entropy variability come from, and at

A Community Data Set for Comparing Automated Coronal Hole Detection Schemes

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Automated detection schemes are nowadays the standard approach for locating coronal holes in extreme-UV images from the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). However, factors such as the noisy nature of solar imagery, instrumental effects, and others make it

Solar cycle evolution of the solar wind in three dimensions [PDF]

, 1983
Measurements of the solar wind speed both in and out of the ecliptic are presented for 1971-82. The speed estimates, which were made with the interplanetary scintillation system at UC San Diego, have been compared to in situ for large, slowly evolving ...

Coronal hole boundaries evolution at small scales: I. EIT 195 A and TRACE 171 A view

, 2009
We aim at studying the small-scale evolution at the boundaries of an equatorial coronal hole connected with a channel of open magnetic flux with the polar region and an `isolated' one in the extreme-ultraviolet spectral range.

Relationship of Coronal Mass Ejection Events with Solar Flares and coronal Holes [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1990
We present an analysis of the relationship between coronal mass ejection (CME) events with solar flares and coronal holes. Out of 79 CME events whose location and span are known, 10 CME event circles contain solar flares. On the other hand out of 71 CME events (selected for the study with coronal holes) 40 CME event circles contain coronal holes.

Solar Polar Flux Redistribution Based on Observed Coronal Holes

The Astrophysical Journal, 2022
Abstract We explore the use of observed polar coronal holes (CHs) to constrain the flux distribution within the polar regions of global solar magnetic field maps in the absence of reliable quality polar field observations. Global magnetic maps, generated by the Air Force Data Assimilative Photospheric flux Transport (ADAPT) model, are ...

Energy Conversion Pathways Inside Kelvin‐Helmholtz Vortices

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Energy transfer, cross‐scale coupling, and dissipation in astrophysical plasmas remain fundamental unresolved problems. The velocity‐shear–driven Kelvin–Helmholtz instability (KHI), ubiquitous in plasmas, is a key multiscale mechanism enabling plasma mixing, particle energization and the solar wind–magnetosphere coupling, making it a critical ...

Thermodynamic Evolution of Plumes

The Astrophysical Journal
Plumes are considered to play an important role in the origin of the solar wind. However, an understanding of their thermodynamic evolution is not complete. Here, we perform a detailed study of a plume inside a coronal hole throughout its lifetime, using

Characterization of Mercury's Atomic and Molecular Hydrogen Exosphere and the First Detection of H2 Ions

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract From 1974 to 1975, the Mariner 10 spacecraft studied Mercury's environment during three flybys and detected hydrogen, helium, and possibly atomic oxygen in the exosphere using its ultraviolet spectrometer, but no molecular hydrogen. Based on the sensitivity of the occultation instrument, an upper limit for the H2 ${\mathrm{H}}_{2}$ surface ...
